            Bug ID: 473835
           Summary: disable auto-suspend for VMs by default to avoid
                    virtio hang
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: Powerdevil
           Version: 5.27.7
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: peter...@redhat.com
                CC: m...@ratijas.tk, natalie_clar...@yahoo.de
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When running KDE Plasma in a VM with virt-manager for example
virtio graphics is used by default which does not work with suspend currently.
This causes the VM to hang hard after 15min idle by default.
It would be better to disable auto-suspend when Plasma is running in a VM by
default.
I believe that GNOME 45 will do this too (at least for Fedora 39).

Downstream bug is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2232711

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Fedora KDE Plasma in a VM with virt-manager (with virtio driver)
2. Login and leave Plasma idle for 15min


OBSERVED RESULT
2. VM tries to suspend and hangs hard.

EXPECTED RESULT
Avoid auto-suspending by default in a VM where it is less useful anyway.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Linux 39
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.7
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.109.0
Qt Version: 5.15.10

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
